Definitions
- a common method for cleaning a denture is to immerse the denture in a warm or hot solution of a cleaning product, the solution being contained within an apparatus which may be a glass or a beaker but will often be a purpose designed receptacle.
- Such purpose designed receptacles are well known and typically comprise a container, a lid and a basket for suspending the denture in the container. Typical examples of such receptacles are described in DE 19 09 545, BE 898,818, US 5,275,185 and US 5,184,718. More elaborate cleaning receptacles employing electrical stirrers or other agitation means are also known, for example those described in EP-A-28,672 and FR 2,738,479.
- the invention further provides a denture cleaning apparatus comprising: a) a container, for holding cleaning fluid, having a container bottom and a container side wall, the container bottom and the container side wall defining a first compartment; b) a basket, for holding a denture, removably disposed within the first compartment, the basket having a basket bottom and a basket side wall, the basket bottom and the basket side wall defining a second compartment, the basket having one or more holes or slots in the basket bottom or the basket side wall to allow communication of the fluid between the first and second compartments; and c) a cover for the container; characterised in that the container side wall comprises thermal insulation means selected from: i) a cavity wall, ii) a cellular foam wall; and iii) a thermally insulating jacket attached to and enclosing the container side wall, and that the apparatus has a Thermal Efficiency Indicator selected from a Heat Loss Value of less than 7.5°C and a Touch Temperature of less than 40°C.
- the invention yet further relates to a method of cleaning a denture comprising soaking the denture in an aqueous solution at a temperature of greater than 50°C, the solution comprising a cleaning agent and being contained within a denture cleaning apparatus having a Thermal Efficiency Indicator selected from a Heat Loss Value of less than 7.5°C and a Touch Temperature of less than 40°C.
- a Thermal Efficiency Indicator selected from a Heat Loss Value of less than 7.5°C and a Touch Temperature of less than 40°C.
- the denture cleaning apparatus in this first aspect can include appendages such as feet, handles, labels or the like.
- the basket removably disposed within the first compartment, has a basket bottom and a basket side wall, the basket bottom and the basket side wall defining a second compartment.
- the basket can be lifted out of the first compartment for the purpose of safely removing the denture after cleaning.
- the basket has one or more holes or slots in the basket bottom and/or the basket side wall to allow communication of the fluid between the first and second compartments.
- the basket bottom has one or more holes or slots therein to provide for drainage of the cleaning fluid as the basket is lifted away from the container.
- the basket preferably has an internal volume of from 180 to 300 mis, more preferably from 220 to 280 mis.
- the container side wall comprises a cavity wall.
- a cavity wall is meant a double wall, having an inner and outer wall, with a gap between the two walls.
- the cavity wall preferably extends over at least 75% of the height of the container and around at least 75% of the periphery of the container. More preferably, the cavity extends around the whole of the container such that the entire container side wall is a double wall.
- the inner wall is preferably integrally constructed with the outer wall.
- the outer wall can be attached to the inner at any point. Preferably it is continuously attached at the top or bottom of the container to facilitate moulding.
- Enzymes can also optionally be used in the compositions of the present invention. Suitable enzymes include proteases, alkalases, amylases, lipases, dextranases, mutanases and glucanases.
